Blueberry Cer-co Muffins

Low Carb Blueberry Muffins

I've hit upon what I think, is a pretty good *old fashion* tasting blueberry muffin. I use a combination of Maggie's dry cereal mix and Coconut flour, (Cer-co) and the texture is actually pretty good as well, IMO. This makes 2 servings.

I Can't Believe It Has Been A Year!!

Hi Everyone! I was a frequent visitor last spring and summer when I was just starting (again) a LC WOE. Over the past several years I had some success, but then it seemed to stop working for me. When I started again last April, I cam to the LCE site to get your advice, wisdom and encouragement. I apologize for not having posted in, well let's see, about 8 months! I did NOT fall off the wagon.

Since 1999, Low Carb Eating has been providing Atkins Diet and Low Carb Diet recipes, information, support, products, and much more. We were here before all the hype about low carb diets, and we'll be here after it passes. That's because for many people, low carb diets work!

Low Carb Eating is a Way of Life

If you're new to low carbing, let us give you a quick tour of the low carb diet world!


The basic premise of all low carb diet plans is this: EATING FAT does NOT make us fat! Rather, eating an over-abundance of processed carbohydrates (as in the normal American diet) is what causes us to become obese and to suffer from all kinds of obesity-related diseases. While plans differ in the amount and type of carbs "allowed" - from as low as 20g per day in the "Induction Phase" of the Atkins Diet to quite a bit more but only from very whole grain, low glycemic carbs in the SugarBusters Diet, to somewhere in between in the Carbohydrate Addicts Diet - keeping the amount of carbohydrates eaten lower than the average is the cornerstone of the low carb diet lifestyle.

What low carb diet plans are out there? Bunches! Now that low carbing is becoming a bit more mainstream, lots of folks are jumping on the bandwagon and coming out with their version of a "Low Carb Diet." However, the major "low" carb diet plans that have been out there for a while are: the Atkins Diet, the South Beach Diet, the Carbohydrate Addicts' Diet, Protein Power, The Zone, SugarBusters!, Lindora Lean for Life, Neanderthin, The Suzanne Sommers Plan, Dr. Bernstein's Diabetic Solution, and The Schwarzbein Principle. Visit the offical diet plan sites to find out more!

Can YOU do this? Check with your doctor, then give it a try! Many, many folks are finding that low carb eating is a lot easier than they ever thought it could be... once you get past the initial week or so, your appetite decreases, your energy increases, and - well, the weight comes off! Can we guarantee a low carb lifestlye will work for you? Nope. But we can guarantee that others have done it - and that we'll be here to support you if you and your doctor decide that a low carb diet might be for you!
